Preface 


This is a guide to published official records of Botswana, Lesotho, and Swaziland from 
1868 to 1968. Neither date was selected arbitrarily. From 1868 published official 
records issued by or on behalf of Basutoland (Lesotho), the first of the High Commission 
Territories, may be identified. One hundred years later, the independence of Swaziland, 
the last of the High Commission Territories, signaled the end of effective British rule in 
continental Africa. 

This bibliography includes citations to documents of the former High Commission 
Territories during British protection and since independence, together with reports pre¬ 
pared by agencies or individuals with official authorization and funds. From 1868 to the 
beginning of the 20th century, official publications issued by the three governments are 
sparse. To increase the usefulness of the guide for this period, a number of relevant 
British official papers have been included, some of which pertain to Bechuanaland 
(Botswana) and Swaziland before the establishment of British protectorates. These papers 
are of significance because they contribute to an understanding of each territory’s sub¬ 
sequent relations with the protecting power. There is also a selection of publications 
issued by the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope, which administered Basutoland from 
1871 to 1884, and the South African Republic and Transvaal Colony which had some 
jurisdiction over Swaziland from 1894 to 1899 and 1903 to 1906. 

A number of official publications of the governments of the Union and the Republic 
of South Africa are relevant to the study of the former High Commission Territories, for 
example in the fields of banking and currency, customs, transportation, statistics, and 
postal and telecommunications services. These documents have been excluded, however, 
because they were not prepared by or subject to the authority of the governments of the 
three countries. Reports prepared by specialized agencies of the United Nations have also 
been excluded. 

The guide is divided into nine parts which include separate sections for Botswana and 
Lesotho under their earlier names, Bechuanaland and Basutoland, and a brief section of 
works by or about the High Commission Territories collectively. Entries are arranged 
alphabetically by author and title within each part except that publications concerning 
censuses, constitutions, development plans and planning, estimates, laws, and legislatures 
have been grouped together under these headings. The subdivision “Other Publications” 
at the end of some parts includes official and quasi-official documents cataloged by 
American libraries or found in bibliographies entered under personal or corporate 
authors. There is also an index, mainly to subjects and personal authors. 

Every effort has been made to identify the significant publications issued by or on 
behalf of the former High Commission Territories. The emphasis has been on locating 
copies held by the Library of Congress and other American libraries represented in the 
National Union Catalog. Location of items is indicated either by a Library of Congress 
call number or location symbol or, for material in another library, by the National Union 
Catalog symbol for the library (see “Key to Symbols”). Information about titles not 
located in American libraries has been gathered primarily from bibliographic sources such 
as the Catalogue of the Colonial Office Library and the Royal Commonwealth Society’s 
Catalogue. Also important for providing leads to government publications were the 


v 


annual reports on Basotoland, Bechuanaland, and Swaziland issued by the British Govern¬ 
ment (see complete citations in “Key to Sources Quoted”), and part 5 of Lord Hailey’s 
Native Administration in the British African Territories (item 776 in the bibliography). 

Several publications that were identified after the bibliography was numbered have 
been inserted in their appropriate sections and sequences and assigned the number of the 
preceding entry followed by an “a” or “b”.

Historical Note 


Botswana, Lesotho, and Swaziland share a unique 
and sometimes uneasy experience as independent 
black African countries in the midst of European- 
controlled southern Africa. Their emergence as auton¬ 
omous states reflects, in part, the thrust of African 
nationalism in the 1960’s which changed the political 
map of Africa. It also reflects the historical and 
political circumstances which influenced the British 
Government’s decisions, between 1909 and 1961, to 
postpone transferring the High Commission Terri¬ 
tories to the jurisdiction of the Union of South 
Africa. When South Africa became a Republic in 
1961 and withdrew from the British Commonwealth 
because of challenges to its controversial racial 
policies, the prospect of any future transfer of Basu¬ 
toland, Bechuanaland, or Swaziland to South Africa 
declined. This was a turning point in the affairs of 
the people of the High Commission Territories, after 
which their political aspirations gained momentum 
and, eventually, recognition. 

Lesotho 

Basutoland, the first of the High Commission Ter¬ 
ritories in southern Africa, became the independent 
Kingdom of Lesotho on October 4, 1966. This 
enclave of 11,716 square miles, situated within the 
Republic of South Africa, is the home of almost a 
million people, the majority of whom claim descent 
from the Sotho clans which were unified in the early 
19th century under Moshoeshoe I. During the wars of 
conquest waged at that time by the Zulu and Mata- 
bele in southern Africa, Moshoeshoe succeeded in 
rallying the Basuto to resist subjugation and to 
extend their territorial claims. 

By the 1850’s, Dutch farmers, who had migrated 
from the Cape Colony to the vicinity of the Basuto, 
were making incursions into areas which the latter 
considered theirs. Raids and retaliatory expeditions 
by the two groups multiplied, culminating in warfare. 
After repeated requests for assistance, Moshoeshoe 
obtained the intervention of the British High Com¬ 
missioner in South Africa who extended British 


protection by annexing Basutoland on March 12, 
1868. A year later the boundaries between Basuto¬ 
land and the Boer’s Orange Free State were delimited 
by the Convention of Aliwal North and, although 
neither side was satisfied with the provisions of the 
settlement, their boundaries have remained essentially 
the same to the present. 

In 1871 Basutoland was annexed to the British 
Colony of the Cape of Good Hope. This arrangement 
lasted 13 turbulent years, marked by growing resent¬ 
ment among the Basuto against the Cape govern¬ 
ment’s attempts to regulate their internal affairs. 
Warfare broke out in 1880 when the government 
tried to enforce a policy of disarming the African 
population. After the settlement of the “Gun War” 
by arbitration in 1881, the Cape Colony initiated 
negotiations aimed at returning Basutoland to Brit¬ 
ain’s authority, and in 1884 Basutoland was restored 
to the British Crown under the jurisdiction of the 
High Commissioner. The Cape Colony continued to 
contribute to the cost of administering the territory, 
however, until early in the 20th century. 

The local representative of the High Commissioner 
was the Resident Commissioner who served as prin¬ 
cipal executive officer of Basutoland and president of 
the Basutoland Council. The Council, an advisory 
body composed mainly of chiefs’ representatives and 
official members, received statutory recognition in 
1910. Beginning in 1938, however, a number of 
proclamations were issued which signaled a change in 
British policy. Chiefs and their courts of law were 
subject to new rules of conduct, district councils were 
created to provide a means of communication be¬ 
tween the people and the Basutoland Council, a 
national treasury was established to provide salaries 
for chiefs commensurate with their functions, and the 
number of chiefs and courts was reduced. Provisions 
were made subsequently for the nomination and 
election of representatives of the people to the Basu¬ 
toland Council. 

In 1955 the Council recommended that it be 
granted legislative authority in matters concerning 
internal affairs. A committee appointed to investigate 


xiii 


this question and related problems issued its report in 
1958, followed by the drafting of a constitution for 
Basutoland which became effective in 1960. This 
constitution established an Executive Council and a 
legislature, the Basutoland National Council, half of 
whose members were elected indirectly by the 
people. The election for representatives to the legis¬ 
lature provided the forum for political parties to raise 
a number of important questions, particularly con¬ 
cerning self-government and Basutoland’s relations 
with South Africa. 

Responding to demands for constitutional review 
and greater autonomy, in 1963 a Constitutional 
Commission presented its report which included a 
timetable for eventual independence. Negotiations in 
London between Basuto and British officials were 
followed by the promulgation of a new constitution 
in 1965 providing for internal self-government. A 
slightly modified version of this document was 
adopted as the independence constitution under 
which Basutoland became the Kingdom of Lesotho 
on October 4, 1966, with Moshoeshoe II as constitu¬ 
tional monarch and Chief Leabua Jonathan as Prime 
Minister. 


Botswana 

Botswana, a country of 220,000 square miles, is 
the largest of the former High Commission Territories 
and the only one of the three states which claims 
geographic contact with another independent black 
state—Zambia. The Batswana, who constitute the 
majority of Botswana’s estimated population of 
593,000, are believed to have a common or related 
ancestry. By the 19th century the principal Batswana 
groups had migrated into their present location from 
central and eastern Africa, dispersing the aboriginal 
“bushmen” on the way. Khama III, a principal Bats¬ 
wana chief, rose to prominence in the 1870’s by 
successfully resisting incursions by the neighboring 
Matabele. Later, when the Boers attempted to claim 
large areas of Batswana territory, Khama sought Brit¬ 
ish assistance. Great Britain complied by establishing 
a protectorate over Khama’s country and over the 
territory of several other Batswana chiefs in 1885. 
The southern part of the annexed territory was pro¬ 
claimed the Crown Colony of British Bechuanaland 
and was incorporated in the Cape Colony in 1895. 
That year Khama and two other chiefs traveled to 
England to negotiate an arrangement which would 
exempt their lands from transfer to the administrative 


jurisdiction of the British South Africa Company, a 
move then contemplated by the British Government. 
A compromise agreement was reached providing for 
the chiefs to cede strips of land to the British South 
Africa Company for passage of the Bechuanaland 
(later Rhodesia) Railway. In exchange, their terri¬ 
tories would remain British protectorates under the 
jurisdiction of the High Commissioner. 

The Order in Council of 1891 that first established 
the authority of the High Commissioner over the 
Bechuanaland Protectorate also contained provisions 
for the protection of African customary law. Using 
this as a basis for administrative policies, the British 
made little attempt to regulate the internal affairs of 
the various Batswana groups for the next four 
decades. Beginning in 1934, however, the administra¬ 
tion enacted proclamations restricting the authority 
of the chiefs and establishing greater control over 
local affairs. 

The Protectorate’s legislature evolved from sepa¬ 
rate advisory councils representing African and Euro¬ 
pean interests which were established in 1920. In 
1950 a Joint Advisory Council was created which 
enabled the two groups to work together. Eleven 
years later, the Council’s Constitutional Committee 
drafted a constitution providing for advisory Execu¬ 
tive and African Councils and a Legislative Council 
with limited responsibility for drafting legislation. 

The disproportionately high representation of the 
territory’s small European population in the Protec¬ 
torate’s first legislature brought demands from Afri¬ 
can leaders for reform and greater autonomy. By 
1965, after more than two years of negotiations, a 
new constitution was promulgated establishing a form 
of self-government. It created a popularly elected 
nonracial Legislative Assembly from which a Prime 
Minister would be elected. That same year, the capital 
of Bechuanaland was moved from Mafeking in South 
Africa, where it had been located since the 19th 
century, to Gaberones in the Protectorate. 

In 1966 representatives of the new Bechuanaland 
Government met with British officials in London to 
discuss independence. It was agreed that the office of 
Prime Minister would be replaced by that of Presi¬ 
dent, and legislative power would be vested in the 
President and the National Assembly. The composi¬ 
tion and functions of the House of Chiefs, which had 
been set forth in the pre-independence constitution, 
were slightly modified, and a new constitution was 
approved. On September 30, 1966, Bechuanaland 
became the independent Republic of Botswana with 
Sir Seretse Khama as the first President.

Swaziland 

Swaziland, with 6,705 square miles and 374,697 
inhabitants, is the smallest of the former High Com¬ 
mission Territories, but it has the most promising 
land and mineral resources. Although Swaziland was 
the last of the territories to regain its independence, 
its people maintain that they were never a subject 
nation despite British rule. The Swazi are believed to 
have migrated into their present locations in Swazi¬ 
land and Eastern Transvaal during the 18th century, 
strengthening their own group by marrying into or 
absorbing neighboring populations. During the reign 
of Mswati, 1840-68, the Swazi developed a strong 
fighting force which enabled them to extend their 
territorial claims, despite the ever-present threat of 
the Zulus to the south. The most serious challenge to 
the Swazi’s sovereignty, however, was to come from 
Europeans who were attracted by Swaziland’s 
minerals and the generous concessions awarded by its 
kings. 

As early as the 1860’s land concessions were 
granted to Boer settlers. During the 1870’s and 
1880’s, there was an influx of Boer and British 
settlers and adventurers seeking land and mineral con¬ 
cessions, grazing and trading rights, and other special 
dispensations. When conflicts among the Europeans 
occurred because of overlapping claims, the South 
African Republic (Transvaal) and the British Govern¬ 
ment intervened in 1890 to establish a form of 
condominium government. In the Swaziland Conven¬ 
tion of 1890 which created this government, the 
independence of the Swazi was guaranteed, in keep¬ 
ing with guarantees contained in earlier agreements 
between the Boers and the British in 1881 and 1884. 
Three years later, however, the South African 
Republic obtained the consent of the British Govern¬ 
ment to negotiate with the Swazi for control of 
Swaziland, although not for its incorporation. Despite 
the Swazi’s refusals to agree to these demands, in 
1894 the South African Republic and Great Britain 
concluded a new convention conferring jurisdiction 
over Swaziland upon the Republic. Five years later, 
with the outbreak of the Anglo-Boer War, the South 
African Republic relinquished control of the country 
to the Swazi Paramount Chief. 

Following the defeat of the South African Repub¬ 
lic, Great Britain annexed the Republic (renamed 
Transvaal Colony) and Swaziland as well, claiming 
inheritance of the Republic’s jurisdiction over Swazi¬ 
land as a result of Britain’s victory. Swaziland was 
administered briefly by a Special Commissioner until 


the Governor of the Transvaal Colony assumed con¬ 
trol of the territory in 1903. When the Transvaal 
received self-government in 1906, Swaziland was 
transferred to the jursidiction of the High Commis¬ 
sioner for South Africa, and a Resident Commissioner 
was appointed to represent him. 

Among the most serious problems facing the new 
Swaziland administration was the question of land 
concessions and the shortage of available land for the 
Swazi. By proclamation in 1908, one third of each 
land concession, excluding mineral areas and land set 
aside for the Crown, was partitioned for the use of 
the Swazi. The result was that the people who com¬ 
prised at least 90 percent of the population were 
allocated less than 30 percent of the land. The Swazi 
maintained that complete alienation of the land to 
European concessionnaires had never been the inten¬ 
tion of their kings, because such a concept was 
completely foreign to Swazi law and custom. The 
land question remained controversial throughout the 
course of British rule, and, as recently as 1968, Swazi 
delegates to the Independence Conference in London 
suggested that there should be compensation for their 
lost patrimony. 

Regular meetings between the British officials and 
the Swazi King and lesser chiefs were initiated in the 
late 1920’s, but responsibility for the Swazi’s internal 
affairs was left largely in the hands of the latter. 
Regulations governing the Swazi chieftaincy were 
initiated in 1944 but did not actually become opera¬ 
tive until 1950. The small but influential European 
community in Swaziland was represented by a Euro¬ 
pean Advisory Council, established in 1921 and re¬ 
ceiving statutory recognition in 1949, which advised 
the Resident Commissioner on matters affecting their 
interests. 

In 1960 a committee was appointed by the Resi¬ 
dent Commissioner to formulate proposals for a bi- 
racial council to advise and help draft legislation for 
Swaziland. The committee’s report, together with 
modifications introduced by the British Government, 
created the framework for a constitution which was 
promulgated in 1963. This constitution established an 
Executive Council of official and nonofficial mem¬ 
bers and a Legislative Council formed in part of repre¬ 
sentatives elected on a basis of racial parity. The 
election for African representatives to the legislature 
took place in 1964. Although it was contested by a 
number of political parties that had surfaced during 
the previous four years, all seats were won by the 
Mbokodvo National Movement supported by the 
Swazi chieftaincy. 


xv 


At the first meeting of the new legislature, the 
leader of the African representatives raised the ques¬ 
tion of constitutional review. Talks began in 1965 
during which the British Government agreed to recog¬ 
nize the Swazi King, Sobhuza II, as head of a pro¬ 
tected state with internal self-government, except in a 
few areas such as finance, security, and the public 
service. A bicameral Parliament consisting of a non- 
racial House of Assembly and a Senate was also 
proposed. Only on the question of the King’s control 
of minerals was there substantial disagreement. The 
pre-independence constitution came into effect on 
April 25, 1967. Elections for the House of Assembly 
took place earlier in the month and resulted in 


another victory for the Mbokodvo National Move¬ 
ment led by Prince Makhosini Dlamini. 

In September 1967 the Swaziland Parliament 
unanimously agreed to initiate independence proceed¬ 
ings with the British Government. Talks held in 
London the following year resulted in the drafting of 
an independence constitution similar in many ways to 
the previous constitution except that the King gained 
control of mineral rights which had previously been 
denied him. On September 6, 1968, Swaziland 
became an independent kingdom, thus concluding the 
colonial history of the High Commission Territories 
in southern Africa.

CONSTITUTION (items 22-24) 

Note: Basutoland’s first constitution, granted in 1959, 
became effective in 1960. In 1962 a review committee was 
appointed to evaluate that constitution and to make recom¬ 
mendations. The outcome of the work of the review com¬ 
mittee was a pre-independence Constitutional Conference, 
held in London in 1964. The constitution which was drafted 
at this conference became effective in 1965 and, with some 
slight modifications, formed the basis of the independence 
constitution of 1966.

LEGISLATIVE AND ADVISORY 
COUNCILS (items 97-103) 

Note: The advisory Basutoland Council, variously called 
Basutoland National Council and Basuto National Council, 
began meeting regularly in 1903 and received statutory recog¬ 
nition 7 years later. The Basutoland Constitution of 1960 
provided for a new National Council with legislative respon¬ 
sibility in a number of areas relating to internal affairs. An 
advisory Executive Council, with some responsibility for 
activities of the departments of government, was also created 
at this time. In 1965 a new bicameral legislature was estab¬ 
lished, according to provisions of the pre-independence con¬ 
stitution. This legislature was composed of a Senate and a 
popularly elected National Assembly.

Note: This section consists of documents issued by or on behalf of the Bechuana¬ 
land Government to September 30, 1966. It does not include works concerning 
British Bechuanaland (incorporated in the Cape of Good Hope in 1895). Additional 
publications relating to Bechuanaland can be located in the section on the High 
Commission Territories collectively (items 550-57) and among the official publica¬ 
tions of Great Britain (items 601-785). 

It should be noted that in the period shortly before independence, many govern¬ 
ment documents began to appear without the designation “ Protectorate. ” There¬ 
fore, throughout this section and elsewhere in the bibliography, unless the full 
name is essential for accuracy, Bechuanaland Protectorate is called Bechuanaland.

CONSTITUTION (items 192-97) 

Note: In 1960 a constitution was introduced in the Bech¬ 
uanaland Protectorate, based on proposals submitted by the 
Joint Advisory Council’s Constitutional Committee together 
with modifications and recommendations suggested by the 
Resident Commissioner and the High Commissioner. New 
constitutional talks began in 1963 and culminated in the 
drafting of a pre-independence constitution which was 
approved in June 1964 and became effective as of March 3, 
1965. In February 1966, in London, an independence consti¬ 
tution was negotiated by which Bechuanaland would become 
the Republic of Botswana on September 30, 1966.

LEGISLATIVE AND ADVISORY 
COUNCILS (items 252-67) 

Note: In 1920, statutory Native and European Advisory 
Councils were established to advise the Resident Commis¬ 
sioner on matters affecting the African and European popula¬ 
tions. The Native (later African) Advisory Council was 
composed of government officials, chiefs and other African 
representatives, while the European Advisory Council was 
elected by the European population. A Joint Advisory Coun¬ 
cil was formed in 1950 consisting of representatives of the 
two Councils and officials. This advisory body was given 
some responsibilities for drafting legislation. In 1960, a new 
constitution, based on proposals drafted by the Joint Advi¬ 
sory Council’s Constitutional Committee, became effective. 
The constitution provided for a Legislative Council composed 
of Africans, Europeans, and an Asian representative, the 
latter two being popularly elected by their constituents. 
African representatives were nominated by an African Coun¬ 
cil, which also served as a consultative body on African 
affairs. An advisory Executive Council was established. The 
pre-independence constitution, which became effective in 
1965, created a Legislative Assembly, the majority of mem¬ 
bers of which were popularly elected. A Prime Minister was 
to be chosen from the Legislative Assembly through elections 
in the Assembly. A consultative House of Chiefs was estab¬ 
lished to advise on legislation affecting traditional affairs (see 
also item 232).

CENSUS (items 378-84) 

Note: The first recorded census of Swaziland was taken in 
1898 under the auspices of the South African Republic in 
connection with the collection of taxes. The first census 
documented in this bibliography is that of 1904 (item 606) 
taken simultaneously with the census of Transvaal Colony (as 
the South African Republic was then called). Subsequent 
census figures have been obtained for 1911. 1921, 1936, 
1946,1956 and 1966.

CONSTITUTION (items 392-98) 

Note: In 1962, a Constitutional Committee that had been 
appointed by the Resident Commissioner of Swaziland two 
years earlier submitted its report. The Committee’s recom¬ 
mendations and proposals suggested by the Secretary of State 
provided a framework for discussions which led to the draft¬ 
ing of a constitution for Swaziland in 1963. At the first 
meeting of the legislature created by the new constitution, a 
committee to review that constitution was proposed. This 
committee was established in 1965, and its report was sub¬ 
mitted the next year. Consultations between British authori¬ 
ties and various interest groups in Swaziland ensued and 
resulted in the drafting of another constitution in 1967. This 
pre-independence constitution contained many provisions 
that were retained in the independence constitution that was 
negotiated the next year during talks in London. The inde¬ 
pendence constitution became effective as of September 6, 
1968.

LEGISLATIVE AND ADVISORY 
COUNCILS (items 490-95) 

Note: In June 1964 representatives of the Swazi and Euro¬ 
pean populations were elected to seats in a Legislative Coun¬ 
cil from African, European, and national rolls, as provided 
for in the constitution of 1963. Prior to this election, sepa¬ 
rate Swazi and European councils were in existence and had 
served as advisory bodies to the Resident Commissioner for 
discussion of problems and proposed legislation which might 
affect their respective groups. An Executive Council was also 
formed in 1964 consisting of representatives from the Legis¬ 
lative Council and appointees of the Queen’s Commissioner. 
The Legislative Council was succeeded in 1967 by a bicam¬ 
eral Parliament comprised of a House of Assembly and a 
Senate. The House of Assembly, elected without regard to 
special racial provisions, consisted of representatives directly 
elected by the voters from eight three-member constit¬ 
uencies, together with the Attorney-General and a specified 
number of nominees of the King. The Senate was composed 
of an equal number of representatives chosen by the House 
of Assembly and by the King. The structure of the Swaziland 
parliament remained essentially the same according to the 
provisions of the independence constitution in 1968.

Cape of Good Hope 

Note: By an Act of the legislature of the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope, 
Basutoland was annexed to the Colony in 1871. Thirteen years later the Cape 
Colony’s jurisdiction over Basutoland was relinquished to the British Government. 
Responsibility for Basutoland’s administration devolved upon the British High 
Commissioner for South Africa who, until the end of the 19th century was also 
Governor of the Cape Colony. A Resident Commissioner was stationed in Basuto¬ 
land to administer the territory on behalf of the High Commissioner. 

The following entries concern the affairs of Basutoland during the Cape Colony’s 
administration. Many of these documents have appeared in the series of Cape 
parliamentary papers (item 595) and are held by the Library of Congress under the 
call number J707.L3. For these publications, the number of the paper, its date, and 
volume number in the series are given. Unless otherwise noted, documents issued by 
the Government of the Cape of Good Hope were published by W. A. Richards &

M. E. Chacko, chairman. 

Note: The mission to the High Commission Territories 
was a result of a resolution passed by the United Nations 
Special Committee of 24 on November 2, 1964, calling on 
the Secretary General of the United Nations to investigate 
ways of providing economic and technical assistance to 
the three Territories to help them become less dependent 
on the Republic of South Africa. Two members of the 
mission, including its chairman, were selected by the 
Secretary General. The British Government, which 
financed the mission, selected the third member. The 
group’s report was submitted to the British Government 
which made it available to the Secretary General and to 
the authorities of the countries concerned.

within the administrative jurisdiction of the Dominions 
Office and then the Commonwealth Relations Office, the 
affairs of Basutoland, Bechuanaland, and Swaziland have 
been handled by the Colonial Office. In August 1966 the 
Colonial Office merged with the Commonwealth Rela¬ 
tions Office to form the Commonwealth Office headed by 
a Secretary of State for Commonwealth Affairs. The 
duties of the Secretary of State for the Colonies con¬ 
tinued to be carried out until January 1967 when the 
Secretary of State for Commonwealth Affairs assumed 
responsibility for the territories which had been adminis¬ 
tered by the Secretary of State for the Colonies. 

Among the following Colonial Office publications are 
a few reports which have been issued later than their 
report year. These documents, therefore, do not accu¬ 
rately reflect the administrative changes noted above.

Commonwealth Relations Office. 

Note: The Commonwealth Office was created in 1947 
as a successor to the Dominions Office that had been 
created as a separate department in 1925 to relieve the 
Colonial Office of responsibility for the self-governing 
territories such as the Union of South Africa. The Domin¬ 
ions Office and the Commonwealth Relations Office, suc¬ 
cessively, assumed jurisdiction over the non self-governing 
High Commission Territories because Great Britain’s 
representative in the Union of South Africa also served as 
the High Commissioner with responsibility for Basuto¬ 
land, Bechuanaland Protectorate, and Swaziland. 

When South Africa became a Republic outside the 
British Commonwealth in 1961, Great Britain’s relations 
with South Africa were transferred to the jurisdiction of 
the Foreign Office, while the High Commission Territories 
were restored to the jurisdiction of the Colonial Office.

High Commissioner for Basutoland, the Bechuanaland 
Protectorate, and Swaziland. 

Note: The office and functions of the High Commis¬ 
sioner evolved from the commission to the Governor of 
the Cape Colony in 1846 appointing him “High Commis¬ 
sioner for the settling and adjustment of the affairs of the 
territories in Southern Africa adjacent or contiguous to 
the eastern and northeastern frontier of the said Colony.” 
(Cited in the Dominions Office and Colonial Office List of 
Great Britain, 1940, p. 213). The Commissioner’s author¬ 
ity in Basutoland was established by Order in Council of 
February 2, 1884. Orders in Council dated May 9,1891, 
and December 1, 1906, respectively, established his 
authority in Bechuanaland Protectorate and Swaziland. In 
each of the territories, Great Britain’s suzerainty had been 
proclaimed considerably earlier. 

Until the end of the 19th century, the Governor of the 
Cape Colony served also as High Commissioner. From 
1900 to 1964, the Commissioner ship was held succes¬ 
sively by the Administrator, then Governor, of the Trans¬ 
vaal and the Orange River Colony, the Governor General 
of the Union of South Africa, the High Commissioner of 


the United Kingdom in South Africa, and the British 
Ambassador to South Africa. In 1935 the Commissioner’s 
official title was changed from High Commissioner for 
South Africa to High Commissioner for Basutoland, the 
Bechuanaland Protectorate, and Swaziland. 

Between 1963 and 1964, constitutional and adminis¬ 
trative changes in the Territories resulted in their removal 
from the direct authority of the High Commissioner. His 
local representatives, the Resident Commissioners, were 
replaced by Commissioners who reported directly to the 
Secretary of State for the Colonies. By an Order in Coun¬ 
cil dated July 27, 1964, the office of High Commissioner 
was abolished.

South African Republic and Transvaal Colony 

Note: The Swaziland Convention of 1890 established a government commission 
composed of representatives of Great Britain and the South African Republic and a 
European representative of the Swazi to regulate the affairs of Swaziland. The 
internal affairs of the Swazi were exempted from the jurisdiction of the com¬ 
mission. In 1894, the South African Republic, having obtained Britain’s consent, 
became the sole administering authority in Swaziland despite the Swazi’s refusal to 
assent to this change. From 1894 to 1899 the South African Republic exercised the 
“rights and powers of jurisdiction, protection and administration” in Swaziland; 
however, with the outbreak of the Anglo-Boer War, the Republic relinquished 
control of Swaziland to the Swazi Paramount Chief 

When Britain defeated and annexed the South African Republic (renamed Trans¬ 
vaal Colony), Swaziland was also annexed. In 1903 the Governor of Transvaal 
Colony was formally empowered to administer Swaziland. Three years later, when 
the Transvaal was granted self-government, the Governor’s jurisdiction over Swazi¬ 
land was transferred to the High Commissioner for South Africa.
